Danny Lee is Youngest US Amateur Champion
Look out Tiger Woods; there’s a young New Zealander hot on your heels. Eighteen-year-old, Danny Lee won the US Amateur Championship this week, making him the youngest player to ever win the tournament. He breaks the record previously held by Woods by 6 months and 29 days.
His victory gives Lee an exemption for next year’s US and British Opens and a ten-year exemption for the US Amateur as long as he remains an amateur. Lee indicated that he had no immediate plans to turn pro. First, he needs to finish high school.
